How connected are we to reality – and what is reality in the first place?

 

 

There are three realities

 

The one we are most familiar with, is defined in three words by Kabbalah, which is the most succinct summary of our reality:

 

Time Space Souls

 

In other words, in a time-space continuum, God placed four soul categories, the inanimate (rocks etc.) the vegetative (growing things) the animals (moving things) and the human (talking, intelligence possessing, things.)

 

Firstly, what is your connection to this reality – are you aware that others exist? – on a spiritual level, do you realize that just as you feel – as you are sensitive, as you fear and you love – as you seek unity and harmony, so do all other people, even animals, even plants, even inanimate matter (which science amply shows reacts to human emotions?!)

 

Then there is reality number two, the supernatural, that bends time and space – mostly revealed through Tzaddikim, unique souls like Mosses, they showed us that our fixed paradigm, is not all there is to it, rather, it is the bottom of an infinite chain.

 

Which leads us to the top of that chain, God, the creator of all paradigms!

 

But here is the rub, some people manage to figure out the first reality – others the second – some live in science / pragmatism, others in the spiritual / miraculous – yet the truth is, that the Creator of both, seeks as our sages teach us, to merge the two, creating a third reality:

 

This is when you accept that the miraculous need not be in contradiction to the natural;

 

When you realize, God is both capable of leading you to a higher purpose, yet within! the very universe he created!

 

Succinctly, when goodness and kindness become your gps!
